common MR.HMT cant you make your own compressor(a/c) cooled setup for ur computer so you can go back in time with the time rifts?

celerons are tyhe best to overclock. my friend had one that was totally submerged in a tank of canola oil and it had the stock crappy heatsink and everything, he oiver clocked it from 500 to like 900 something. he explained why he use oil because of some reason.

i saw someone who used n2 to bring a p3 to 4 gigahertz. he was like durr, quake was soo leet at 300 fps.

i dont even understand people like that. the human eye cant even percieve past 60 frames per seccond. so why would you wanna run a game way past what it needs? i just think its retarted.

human eye = 32fps

movies, tv, etc are like 30fps.

the reason games arent so smooth at 30 is because it's not sustained.

Bbspot is satirical news, i.e. not true. Still funny though.

satire means they overdue things that wouldnt seem funny. or something you can joke about, but you overdo it wayy too much.


i was also in an argue ment with my friend ( new mac g5 user ) and he insistted that not all computer monitors dont run high deff. untill i proved him wrong, he was like " yah your still not runing high def cus your not using a high def cable, just a regular vga cable" i actually run the cable with the white plug that goes into my vid card.

i dont get it really, whats the point to spend tonsof cash to play a game that you would end up not laying in less than a year. atleast cars you are doing stuff hands on, and risking your life and some sort of way.
